The town of Afton sits in the middle of Star Valley, between the Salt River Range in western Wyoming and the Webster Range of eastern Idaho. An ideal vacation destination, the valley has access to hiking and horseback riding trails, mountain lakes and streams for fishing, and hundreds of miles of forest roads and highways for sightseeing. Yellowstone and Teton National Parks as well as the Jackson Hole are an easy day trip from Afton. The surrounding Bridger and Caribou National Forests provide camping, hunting and sightseeing opportunities. Mormon settlers founded Afton along the Lander Cutoff of the Oregon Trail. You can drive to many points along the trail and walk through portions of it, where wagon ruts and tree carvings left by early pioneers are still evident. Today the trail is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Afton also is home to the world's largest elk horn arch; spanning 75 feet across the four lanes of US Highway 89, it consists of 3,011 elk antlers and weighs 15 tons.
